One project, different kinds of work.
One fictional garden gives us a few different jobs to try. The names, numbers and states are made up.
Modes describe the light: Night uses a dark ground and Day uses a light ground. Surfaces describe the work: Study gives reading room to breathe, Ledger helps comparison, and Folio prepares content for print. Ready, Review and Resting describe the work itself.
Each example starts with a light and surface that suit the job. As you scroll, the toolbar follows along. Change a setting and it applies to that example only; your choices stay put while you look around.
Starts in Night and Study. Switch to Day for a different light on the same story.
Look for: reading measure and a clear lead.
The Common Ground Project
A garden is never quite finished. At Common Ground, neighbours tend shared beds, care for the paths and make places to pause. Small observations help us decide what needs attention next.
Our fictional project keeps a simple record of each place, so volunteers can find a useful place to begin.
Explore the project reportStarts in Day and Ledger. Switch to Study and watch the rows get a little more breathing room.
Look for: headers and states written in words across twelve places.
